Abstract excerpt

Butyrylcholinesterase (BChE) is coded by the BCHE gene that presents four exons. The non-codifying exon 1 presents two variants -116G and -116A, being -116A preferentially in cis conformation with the 539T variant (K) of exon 4 which was associated with lower BChE activity and lower body mass index (BMI) variance. This study analyzed the frequency of -116 variants and the relation of genotypes -116GG;539AA,...
